"The price of freedom is high": Kuleba urged Ukrainians abroad to return to fight the Russian Federation

Foreign Minister stated that those who can return, let them return and help Ukraine fight and survive their personal contribution. Many are very tired of the war, but that does not mean that Ukrainians are ready to surrender. Foreign Minister of Ukraine Dmytro Kuleba called on Ukrainians abroad to return home to help the country fight the Russian invaders. He expressed his opinion in an interview with The Irish Times.

"We respect the individual choice of each person, but we also urge all Ukrainians who have left the country since the beginning of a full -scale invasion, consider returning home," the minister said. According to the coal, some cannot do this because of health problems or for other reasons. "But those who have a choice can return and help Ukraine fight and survive their direct contribution," he said.

The Foreign Minister also noted that the Ukrainians survived the reign of the imperial states, the bloody massacre of the two world wars, the destructive Holodomor of 1932-33, caused by Stalin's politics, Soviet repression against national identity and the worst nuclear catastrophe in Chernobyl in 1986.

"Does someone think that the nation who has survived it will just raise their hands and allow the Russian invaders to capture our land, kill our people, rob our homes, rape women and install their dictatorship on our earth? Kuleba. He noted that people are very tired of the war, but that does not mean that Ukraine is ready to surrender.

"On the contrary, Ukrainians know too well from their past that the price of freedom is high, but the price of freedom and occupation is much higher," Kuleba added. We will remind, in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs called for banning export of shells from the EU to other countries except Ukraine. Dmytro Kuleba noted that Western partners made a decision too late to increase their own ammunition production and recognize this mistake.
